John Mcdermott - Hello In There lyrics

We had an apartment in the city Me and loretta liked living there Well it's been years since the kid's have grown A life of their own and left us alone John and linda lived in omaha And joe is somewhere on the road And we lost davey in the korean war And i still don't know what for Don't matter anymore (chorus) You know that old trees just grow stronger And old rivers grow wider everyday And old people just grow lonesome Waiting for someone to say Hello in there hello Me and loretta we don't talk much more She sits and stares Through the backdoor screen And all the news just repeats itself Like some forgotten dream That we'd both seen Someday i'll go and call up rudy We worked together At a factory But what do i sya? If he asks what's new? Nothing what's with you? Nothing much to do (chorus) If you're out walking Down the streets of town And spot some hollow ancient eyes Well please just don't Pa** them by and stare As if you didn't care Say hello in there hello (chorus)
